The one you get when you fall into a really great blade/razor combination?
Yeah.....it goes both ways. I think I have fallen upon the absolute worst combination for me today. I usually get really great shaves from my old style R41 with a red pack Personna, and today I tried that razor with a new Blue Bird blade, which gives me pretty good shaves from my 38C. Well, I might need a transfusion later today. Blood, razor burn, and still some stubble left over. I don't think I've had a worse shave since I started with the DE. My usual red pack in this razor is a true thing of beauty, with hardly ever any blood, and a fairly easy BBS if I pay attention. I have never seen that much disparity between two blades in the same razor. I'll keep the Blue Birds for my 38C and my SuperSpeeds, but I can not let them get near my R41 ever again.
